Nearly Human (Homo heidelbergensis)


(click for link to soundcloud)
a Homo heidelbergensis take on western civilization 


we don’t live in cities
we don’t live in towns
don’t live in houses
got no place to call our own
we don’t have transport
we don’t have cars
we don’t need an A to Z
to tell us where we are
we
we are
nearly human
we don’t have culture
we don’t do art
we’ve got no Mona Lisa
got no pickled sharks
we don’t read papers
we don’t read books
nor glossy magazines
to tell us how to look
we
we are
nearly human
we’ve got no money
we’ve got no cash
got no greedy bankers
trying to rip us off
we’ve got no experts
to tell us what to think
no politicians
to tell us what to do
we
we are
nearly human
we’ve got no generals
we’ve got no guns
we’ve got no terrorists
we’ve got no bombs
got no religion
we’ve got no gods
no jesus, allah, yahweh
no reason to spill blood
we
we are
nearly human
